A rich Londoner without a title, but city
father. is taking his vacation here. He is an
exception to the typical Englishman, who
would leave the stranger to burn up in the
hotel rather than hazard an acquaintance
without credentials. Possibly the sound Of
his own cheerful voice is agreeable to him
self. His manner is a trifle patronizing, and
his conversation something Of the style Of ex-
hortation but he is intelligent and Of benev-
olent opinions and he has the grace TO COM
mend American talent.
Turning the leaves Of The Century Maga-
zine which he held. he said in an oratoricaJ
manner: "In these matters you quite outdo
us-and as for speech making, America is far
away beyond England" He wears on his
finger a ring which belonged to Napoleon l,
and was worn by him during his exile in st.
Helena. Ii is the head Of Josephine in intag
lilo set around with diamonds, and an inside
locket contains her hair, and it cost the pres
ent owner f500.
The son is here at present, but has taken a
shooting lodge for the autumn, where the
partrldges are being raised in poultry yard
like chickens, and will be driven into the
bush when the young man goes up to the
country. He is evidently past 80, but his
respectful Difference to his father and the
amiable relations existing between the two
furnish additional evidence TO previous obser-
vations that at least the letter Of the fifth
commandment is in force in England. The
old folks" as a rule here are not the parties
left at home.' and the element which is
termed Young America in the United
States is manifestly uncsr subjugation in this
couutry.-Tilbury (Englandj Cor. Cleveland
